Jesse Armstrong, Tim Key

Two funny men bring their comedic talents together for a lively evening spanning scriptwriting, fiction and verse.

Jesse Armstrong is the BAFTA-winning television writer whose back catalogue includes Peep Show, Fresh Meat, The Thick of It, and Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror. His debut novel Love, Sex and Other Foreign Policy Goals concerns Andrew, a young man in Manchester who attempts to win a woman’s heart by writing a play that will stop the Balkan conflict.

A regular fixture on BBC radio, Tim Key is a writer, actor and comedian whose accolades include the Edinburgh Comedy Award and Time Out Comedy Performer of the Year.

He will be reading from his new book, The Incomplete Tim Key, a wildly original collection filled with his characteristic wit.
